Hi Tammy,

I haven't received the filter yet, but I am hoping it will be waiting for me when I get home from work I will definitely post more information, and the results, after trying it out.

Since we vacuumed to waste so much, I had to bite the bullet, and add water to my pool from the well, only about half an inch of water. Just so we could run the filter. We still need about 3 more inches. I just followed mbar's instructions, and added the stain remover before I added the water. My ph was already about 7.2.

We still do have a little brown sediment at the bottom that gets stirred up when we swim, but I want to wait until we get the filter before vacuuming again, and then adding more water.

It is kind of frustrating when we wake up in the morning, and the pool is SO clear. Then it gets all cloudy when we swim, but I know that will be taken care of soon. I just keep repeating......POP.........POP........POP........

On the plus side, since the water level is so low, my 5-year old thinks he is king-of-the-pool, since his head is so far above the water.
